Subject: What has BTB become?

I'm really disappointed I just got halo reach a couple months ago and didn't bother buying any DLC since i knew Halo 4 was coming out soon. Why is it know that I am forced to buy DLC to play my favorite game mode; BTB? Is there a way around this?

If not, how much does the map pack cost and which map pack do i have to buy? If its less than $20 is there any microsoft point cards out there that are less than 1600 i'm only going to buy one map pack and I don't like wasting $20 on things i won't buy.

The legendary ending for Halo 4 is Masturcheef and Arby making love.

People still playing Reach. Why not find a different game to play?

~ Videogames are my favorite videogames ~

Halo 3 was the same way FYI for BTB eventually. I mean, don't you want to play something other than Forge maps and Spire?

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

You don't need DLC to play BTB.

I don't have the Defiant maps or Anniversary maps on my HDD. I played BTB just fine today.

Do you like Green Eggs and Ham???

BTB Heavy is awesome.

They should be stricter with the DLC requirements.

You don't need any DLC to play BTB. Ealier 343i made a error (typical) what said you needed it, than they fixed it.

Restart your xbox and you should be good.

and i just tried it 5 seconds ago and it works -_-. lol fail on my part but yeah CLOSE ONE. In the future hopefully they won't make you buy DLC to play BTB that would be a nightmare for me. I'm never interested in DLC i just buy the next game i think DLC is just trying to extend the game's life IMO. I just get on with the next game.

I intend to live forever, or die trying,

so far, so good.

There ia a way around it, buy DLC.

The new maps are great and BTB on Highlands and Breakpoint are fantastic plus the CEA Maps.

But which DLC? Like i said i rarely buy DLC for games. If it comes down to the fact that i HAVE to buy the dlc to play i feel like the game developers are just forcing us to like their game. What if i dont like the DLC? Its too overpriced to some people maybe? Idk but for me its just that i think its an unneccesary extension of the games life. I'll just wait til halo 4 comes out not buy DLC.
